Food Wars Season 4 Announcement [Major News]

Shokugeki no Souma S4 TV anime announced for April 2018.

Shokogeki no Soma season 4 has officially been announced and this is great news, since the third season of the Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma coming end, at least the fourth season has already been confirmed at Jump Festa 2018.

The first trailer for Season 4 of the series teases the next big step in the “Central” arc and fans already have their mouths watering for the next plate.The teaser may be short, but confirms quite a few things that will be tackled in the adaptation. Namely it’ll include Soma’s big showdown with Hayama after his siding with Central (thus the depiction of him here with his hair let down). But the crux of the teaser involves a train, which means the fourth season will go all the way to the Promotion Exams Arc, which sees the surviving rebels of Totsuki go against the Central’s new Elite Ten in a series of even more aggressive challenges to stay in school. This series was first published in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump in 2012, and has been collected in 26 volumes. The manga has been licensed for an English language release by Viz Media. It was adapted into an anime series by J.C. staff has has run for 48 episodes across two seasons.

The third season is still just starting this arc of the series, it could mean the fourth season could run for a lot longer than its 12 episodes occured this time around. The first two seasons of the series each ran for 24 episodes a piece, so the upcoming Winter finale of the third season had taken fans by surprise as it’s the first season in the series to end at Episode 12. Either way how season four turns out, it premieres in April 2018.
